Betting on Once Caldas
Even in the Copa Colombia, Once Caldas was unable to resolve its crisis. Although the team managed to secure a 1-0 victory against Cúcuta Deportivo, it ultimately lost the tie 2-3 on aggregate, resulting in its elimination from the competition.
Once Caldas played with several of its best players, including Sherman Cárdenas and Dayro Moreno, who arrived to reinforce the squad in 2023, but it failed to avoid bad results.
The team is currently being managed by Elkin Soto, who was part of the team that won the 2004 Copa Libertadores.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Éder Chaux; Santiago Jiménez, Fáiner Torijano, Andrés Correa, Alejandro Artunduaga; Guillermo Celis, Juan David Rodríguez, Alejandro García Castillo, Sherman Cárdenas, John Pajoy; Dayro Moreno.
Betting on Millonarios
The Millonarios team has only played two matches, due to different reasons, among them the aggression of a Tolima fan against player Daniel Cataño, but it has managed to demonstrate with two victories why many consider this team as one of the favorites for the title.
The team coached by Alberto Gamero will now seek to take advantage of the absolute crisis its rival is going through to obtain a good result at the Palogrande, but it must first think about its Copa Libertadores match against Universidad Católica of Ecuador for the second qualifying stage of that tournament.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Álvaro Montero, Elvis Perlaza, Juan Pablo Vargas, Andrés Llinás, Andrés Murillo, Daniel Giraldo, Juan Carlos Pereira, Edgar Guerra, Oscar Cortés, Yuber Quiñones, Leonardo Castro.
JefeBet Prediction
The last time these teams met, Once Caldas won 2-1 with goals from Ayron Del Valle and Alejandro García, while Diego Herazo scored for Millonarios.
Once Caldas showed a better side in their Copa Colombia match against Cúcuta, but it will still be difficult for the team to get the three points against a team as well-armed as Millonarios, which is why we at JefeBet are leaning to believe that a draw will be reached this Sunday.
Prediction: Tie (ONC 1-1 MIL).
